So…what are we celebrating??

In a 4th of July special, we take a look at what America is – the good, the bad and the ugly – the real shit and the real people fighting and building beyond the confines of a capitalist empire. Coz inside these walls – of an empire dying, we can keep rising – we can aim higher than just getting by and we can steal hope – from a hangman’s white rope – we can build dignity in the halls of a capitalist divinity – we – can move past – the blame game and masturbatory shame. We’ll wrap it all up in a firework musing that goes quite well with sparklers and watermelon.
